    I use a silicone popper bowl with plain kernels, and I do use the popcorn button on my reclaimed LG microwave. It heats until it detects steam, then it gives a countdown. In my experience it tends to overcook the popcorn so I actually just stop it when the pops are 2-3 seconds apart, as it says on bagged popcorn. Though it depends, different varieties and batches of popcorn can pop differently. I have actually had to add extra time for some kernels.
